Well, VooDoo Color Hack is optional. If it's included, eventually, it's not required that you use it. I have no doubt that Team Infinity will keep this ROM about as stock as possible. I mean, think CyanogenMod. Their ROMs are pretty stock, but, have a ton of optional features you can use, if you choose.
[Vibrant Android Development] dsimages:
Personally, I feel that roms should be as stock as possible. Flash-able/addon packs should be the way to go. There have been plenty of roms in the past that had potential if the bloat wasn't there.

Im also starting to get annoyed with the voodoo color requests. The kernel dev for ICS Passion is not only new to kernels but also working with the latest android version. He has stated that he will be needing some professional help if voodoo color is to be implemented into this rom. I suggest that everyone stop asking for voodoo color ETA's and start finding a kernel dev that has knowledge with voodoo color and ICS kernels.

It has been stated numerous times that voodoo color has to be implemented into the kernel. There is no ETA of that. Almost half of the posts in this thread have "voodoo color" in them.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
F voodoo color. I would like a V8 in my Mini Cooper too, seriously. My truck has a V8 why can't my Mini? This is a beta guys and gals. I just want a smooth, functioning ICS and Neo and Nelson are providing the best there is out there.
[Vibrant Android Development] javacody:

Here in lies my problem. I am running ICS V7 and it is the best ROM ever. 400MHz/1200MHz quick and stable. No touchwiz crapola. Looks beautiful and no double lockscreen/pattern unlock redunency.

I just got a SGS II running stock T-Mobile 2.3.5 with touchwiz. It is brutal. Have to use Odin to root it. No ROMs based on ICS. 2.3.6 update available, but why even bother? Ugh.

I am going to keep my Vibrant. Good thing the buyer backed out and did not send payment!
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
You made me search my archives...lol

Here they are from my drop box.

It's a .md5 (keep the extension so Odin will check the md5 hash) goes in PDA (I still use Odin 1.0 mostly).

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17980900/Vibrant_GB.tar.md5

Please follow the directions on the page to the letter. Bootloaders are really the only thing that can hard brick your phone. That said it's a 1 minute Odin.
[Vibrant Android Development] javacody:
Don't be an arse and remove the .md5 extension and then try to flash. It won't work. And you will crap your pants when you pull your batter and see the exclamation mark. LOL

Named the file back with the md5 extension, plugged the phone back in, and odined just fine. But I filled my shorts up that time!
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
Please, I beg of you, don't include bloat on the next version.

I don't need ROM toolbox. I don't need extra wallpaper. I don't need 4 different GPS apps. Try to be as close as possible as AOSP, or just use CyanogenMod's branches! Thanks!

[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
If you use 7zip you can de-bloat any rom before you flash it.

I always do.

Open Archive (not unzip) it in 7zip. go to /data/app and delete anything you don't want.

Go to /system/app and delete what you don't want.

Close 7zip.

Instant de-bloat

Flash away....

I'm curious... how can you tell if your on a GB boot loader... if your on CM 5.x recovery are you not on a GB boot loader?
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
Is there any way to check which bootloader we're currently running?
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
As Shakespeare says, "That's the rub".

First, Curious, with no usb cable how do you charge your phone?

I always download Roms to my computer so I can open and look at them.

If you don't have a usb cable, have wireless in your home and run windows, download Samba Filesharing from the market (free). It makes your phone a network share.

ALSO WARNING. you need Gingerbread bootloaders for V8. The ONLY way to get them on your phone is through Odin. Odin requires a usb connection to download mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] AgentFour20:
I didn't install vibrant drivers windows automatically installed them . Odin does recognize my phone should I remove the drivers windows installed or should I be fine since Odin see's the phone ?
[Vibrant Android Development] samwest39:
is there a certin boot loader i need ot have for v8
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
If Odin sees it (yellow com:3 or whatever) you are good to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] javacody:
Leave the drivers. My PC did the same as yours.
[Vibrant Android Development] oOo0Blue0oOo:
Just has to be Gingerbread as far as I understand. No specific one named.
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
You should be fine as long as it shows a COM connection in ODIN... you probably have/had kies installed at some point.

I found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=815668 on CPU O/Cing the vibrant. They state on that thread setting below 200 can cause issues... I wonder... I hope NB sets V8 to 1000/200 respectively, that might help some of the lag issues out. I dont like stock ROM being OC'ed by default... and it may be risky for some phones.
[Vibrant Android Development] dsimages:
Power your phone completely down. (pull batt)

Hold only the volume up key and the power button. If that takes you to download mode (digging android image), you are on gb bootloaders.

That is the only way I know of. Someone can correct me if Im wrong...
[Vibrant Android Development] swehes:
Just want to share that I am very excited as my GPS is working. My GPS has never really worked. This is great! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] cmrn89:
Yeah or you can do the same thing but volume down and the power button and that will take you to recovery which may be easier since you can reboot right away from there

http://www.mediafire.com/?5tcj6sq7z32i5s2

When you finish flashing and reboot, you should see a green android logo. (that means everything went ok)
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
frak, guess I'll google on how to change the bootloader logo while I'm at it ;.;
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
Actually used to. Wish I still had it instead of the Benz piece of poop I drive now.

Ordered a Cooper S in spring of '02 before they were ever released. It wasn't made and delivered until September.

Best car I ever owned. Fast, no enconomy car here, although it does get good gas milage. Handles like a go cart, better than other production car made, regardless of the price. I know I tried.

6 speed tranny. Tops out a 135 due to chip but redline in 4th is 120. (how do I know that :rolleyes:)

Sorry to say it died last year. I was stopped at a light behind a GMC van and other cars and another van rearended me at about 40mph. No brakes applied.

Mini died but no harm to me. I bought it for about 22k new and after 8 years and 135k miles they still gave mr 9.7k to total it. It really held it's value.
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
Hrm... cant find much on modifying that image >.<

This is what you should use with ODIN v 1.8... I had issues with 1.3. I have done alot of reading on ODIN settings, and you SHOULD (albeit you dont have to) check the phone bootloader checkbox. (I just noticed that question in an earlier post.

Does anyone know how to reject phone calls by numbers?

in The house & have to say this rom is the most impressive release sense the Bionic release in the day of when Team Whiskey dropped impressive roms. This is by far the most impressive rom that I have flashed sense I have rooted my Vibrant. A huge thanks to everyone who put this puppy together. I can not say enough how great this puppy is rocking the vibrant. I have to learn how to use some of the features that were offered from the 2.2 roms and this will make the vibrant fun to use all over again.

Thank you very much.

GPS is just grand!

Cant wait for the new kernels and themes for this puppy!

Does anyone know how to reject phone calls by numbers?
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
I have the same problem, do this and worked every time for me.

1.) Take battery out and put it back in.

2.) Plug usb cable in and wait for battery symbol

3.) hold both volume buttons down and press(hold) power button until vibrant screen goes away

If you hold the power button to long it will reset again.

Dsimages, i want to personally thank you for helping me along the way to flash GB bootloaders. I remember back in the day (like week after GB was unoffically released) that i tried to flash the bootloaders and got hardbricked, and i swore to myself that i'd never flash them, but the instructions you provided with that thread did it with literally ONE click.

Thanks man, its working great now.

rechecking:

Vol - + power = recov.

vol + + power = download

correct?

Also, are you also getting these little "rainbows" when you start your phone up?

I confirm that photo. That is a newer version of Odin. If you are using that version then that photo is correct. I am using an older version of Odin. Like 1.7 and I do not have the bootloader section. So therefore I only use the pda section.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
I had both PDA and Bootloader avaliable, should i just reflash and this time put it in Bootloader? Because The only "problem" i get is when i turn off phone compeletely, then start it, it shows a little "rainbow" for like half a second and then goes on with regular things edit: i just tried again and now even the rainbow isn't showing.

The combo for recovery works like it should in gb, same with download...

everything seems to be working... should i reflash or what?
[Vibrant Android Development] dsimages:
do not reflash, leave good enough alone.....:D
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
If you got it flashed then no worries.

Basically the PDA box doesnt matter on the older versions unless your doing a specific task. the CSC and Phone field are the only two that get specific. I wish the US carriers went the route of the Euro/Aus carriers, then we'd have basically vanilla OS with "customization packs" we could load/change based on what carrier we are on. :(

[Vibrant Android Development] vexx786:
Okay so I returned to stock JFD with ODIN. Then I rooted by booting into recovery, re installed packages (to install CWR). Restarted phone. Then I flashed a GB bootloader with Odin. My only question now is why don't I see superuser on my phone? And when I flash icsv7 it goes in this loop and I can't get back into CWR. For a split second during boot up after the blue loading bar fills, this screen comes on with this yellow bar and it says something about internalsd and then restarts the phone. Too fast for me to read. I'm going to wait for v8 and flash that to see if anything different happens.

EDIT: nevermind got it
